Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. Here are pointers for a quick start. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author. Just look at CZ:Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. You may ask me to create a personal sandbox for you where you can try out writing articles. If you need help to get going, the forums is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals and its a good idea to join the forums. You can ask any constable for help, too. Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun!
